Regarding adoption

edit

Hi Les733! I'm Twinzor, and I noticed you were interested in being adopted, and I thought I'd offer myself as an adopter. You are of course free to choose whether you'll accept me or if you'd rather want someone else as your adopter. What I have in mind would be a kind of freeform adoption program, where we could concentrate on whatever you feel you need help with. Please drop me a message on my talk page (you may disregard the info about talkback at the top of the page, simply head to my talkpage and click the button for starting a new discussion)! :) — Twinzor Say hi! - Do I suck or rock? 10:09, 16 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for accepting me as your adopter! :) I've created a subpage on my userspace for us to discuss matters related to your adoption, so that it's easier to follow and wont clutter our talk pages. You can ask any questions you'd like there! The page is located here: User:Twinzor/Adoption/Les733 and I've written my reply to your message there. See you there! :) — Twinzor Say hi! - Do I suck or rock? 18:34, 16 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

  In general, a person or organization added to a list, as on Comparison of free web hosting services, should have a pre-existing article to establish notability. If you wish to create such an article, please confirm that your subject is notable according to Wikipedia's notability policy. Thank you. OSborn arfcontribs. 23:52, 25 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Archiving

edit

I'm using User:MiszaBot_III to archive my talk page, I added:

{{archives}}
{{User:MiszaBot/config
|archiveheader = {{talk archive navigation}}
|maxarchivesize = 40K
|counter = 1
|minthreadsleft = 4
|minthreadstoarchive = 1
|algo = old(31d)
|archive = User talk:OSborn/Archive %(counter)d
}}

to the top of the user talk page, it should work for you too (just change "OSborn" in there.) There's a how-to page about it at User:MiszaBot/Archive HowTo. OSborn arfcontribs. 18:47, 27 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Nice to meet you at the edit-a-thon :)

Hi Leslie, it was so nice to meet you at the Wikipedia Art And Feminism Meetup this Saturday in San Francisco. I'm glad to know I'm not the only editor who finds references to be a little tricky! :) Thank you for contributing to the topic of Feminism and modern architecture and Feminist theory. What a unique and important perspective you're sharing with Wikipedia. :) Hope to get to talk with you more at the next meetup. Sincerely, Msannakoval (talk) 03:57, 3 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

Draft Meetup page

edit

Hi, please take a look at this draft: User:Kadburton/Draft meetup page Please feel free to edit as you see fit. When it's ready, I'd suggest moving it to Wikipedia:Meetup/Architects.Build.Wiki/October 2021 -Pete Forsyth (talk) 05:59, 15 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hi Pete -- I made some changes, what do you think? Les733 (talk) 21:18, 15 September 2021 (UTC)?Reply

Coming along nicely! By the way, please see here for the infobox request you had on our last call. I've had no response, and I'm not sure there's going to be a practical path to making this change. But you may want to check back here too, and/or add your own voice to the discussion. Hopefully, using the "location" field like we discussed will be a sufficient workaround though.
